2017 Arnot-Roberts Ribolla Gialla Gialla Vare Vineyard

The 2017 Ribolla Gialla Vare Vineyard is a big, ample wine. Dried pear, almond, earthiness, dried flowers and sage all give the 2017 a distinctly savory, stony character. Creamy and beautifully layered, the Ribolla is quite rich in this vintage, but that is not at all a bad thing. I would prefer to drink it at the dinner table, where the wine's natural resonance will be most at home.
